Chapter 1034: The World in the Sea
"It's a good thing to be curious, but you can't be too curious," Leo looked at Sean who was excited, and said calmly: "The battle over there has nothing to do with us, and we don't know what the situation is, rash contact will only bring danger to ourselves, the most important thing for us now is to know where we are, is it safe here?"
As he spoke, a crystallized psionic spear combined with crystallized magic suddenly condensed in his hand and swung towards a clearing on the right.
The Crystallized Psionic Gun is a weakened version of the Crystallized Soul Gun, not only is it less powerful, but it also has a special effect that can damage the target's spirit or soul.
However, while greatly reducing the power, the speed of casting this psionic skill has also increased, and even Leo can use it as a high-speed burst firearm when he needs it, and in order to make up for some of the lost power, he has added a psionic skill called the psionic cone to the crystallized psionic gun, which can help the psionic gun greatly increase its penetration.
I saw that after Leo swung out the psionic spear that had been condensed in only about a second, a light flashed in the air, and then I saw the crystalline psionic spear shining with silver-blue brilliance pierced into the air not far away, and then the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came out, and an extra corpse appeared out of thin air on the gravel floor that was originally an open space.
The beast was the size of a pack beast, with six tentacle-like limbs, covered in rock-like scales and six pairs of jewel-like eyeballs, and the monster's mouth was on top of its head, and some spiky, thorn-like tongues overflowed from its mouth after its death, which looked terrifying.
Although Sean had seen a lot of monsters, he was still frightened by this monster, obviously he didn't expect to encounter danger so quickly before entering here.
Leo stepped forward and examined the monster's corpse, not to see if the monster was dead, but to see how effective the Crystal Psionic Gun was on such a monster.
Although Leo combined crystallization magic to create this psionic skill, he has only used the animals in the forest outside Castle Black to test the lethality of this psionic skill, and has not tried its true power on people with extraordinary strength or mutated powers, and now this monster just gave him the best reference.
As he expected, the wound on the surface of the monster seemed to have been pierced by an arm-sized crystallized psionic gun, and it seemed that the place that had been pierced was not critical, and it was reasonable to say that it would not be killed immediately, but in fact, at the moment when the crystallized psionic gun pierced the target's body, the psionic impact contained in the psionic gun had already erupted, and all the relatively fragile organs in the monster's body were crushed, which was the real reason for the monster's death.
The Crystallized Psionic Gun, which combines crystallized magic and several psionic skills, has made Leo extremely satisfied in terms of power, but Leo is even more satisfied with the potential of the Crystallized Psionic Gun, because the Crystallized Psionic Gun has a higher version of several psionic skills fused, such as psionic impact has psionic storms that can only be cast by psionic people at level seven and above, once he reaches level 7 psionic ability and integrates the higher psionic skills into it, then the power of the crystallized psionic gun will definitely not be worse than the strategic psionic skills such as the Crystallized Soul Gun and the Thunder Gunγ
Sean, who was on the side, saw a satisfied smile on Leo's face, and immediately asked, "Did you find anything?"
"Well, it's dead. Leo put away his smile and replied flatly.
Sean was a little speechless, but he couldn't refute it, because Leo's answer didn't seem to be wrong, and the monster was indeed dead.
"Do you know where we are now?" asked Leo suddenly.
"This is supposed to be the Mountains of Despair, a long way from the sacrificial temple of Mont Saint-Tru that we should reach. Sean looked around, and said with an extremely ugly face: "We shouldn't appear in this dangerous place, we should appear in the sacrificial temple, you can see the temple of the sea god when you come out of the temple, and you can ......" Before he finished speaking, he stopped, followed him to quickly check the various items used to protect himself, and after finding no abnormality, he breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time looked at Leo vigilantly, and said: "Your Excellency Leo should have done something to me just now, right?"
Leo didn't deny it, nodded and admitted: "I can't say anything, I just used a simple guiding technique, if there are some things that you don't want to say, I can't affect you." Then he looked at Sean thoughtfully, and said: "It seems that the Poseidon Church in the Inge Kingdom, although it has not carried out the Poseidon sacrifice ceremony, but your understanding of this place is probably far greater than that of the Poseidon Church in Landall, and even you know your location just by looking at the terrain and landform, and there is a clear place name, I am a little curious how do you know these things?"
Hearing Leo's inquiry, Sean hesitated slightly, as if he was considering whether he should tell Leo his source of information, and after thinking about it again, he still decided to make the matter clear, because he knew very well that if there was suspicion, then there would definitely be problems with his cooperation with Leo in the future, which would eventually affect the purpose of his visit, which was not the result he hoped to see on this trip.
Sean, who had figured it out, answered Leo's question and said, "Everything I know about this place comes from the Poseidon Church in Randall. β
"Impossible!" Leo frowned and said, "I've read all the books of the Randolph Poseidon Church, and even some of the materials they consider taboo, but I've never seen a single piece of information related to this place. β
Sean was also a little surprised that Leo was able to read all the books and materials of the Landall Poseidon Church, but he quickly put away his surprised expression and curiosity and continued to answer: " If you have read all the books and materials of the Poseidon Church of Landauer, then you must have also seen the information documents about the world where the Poseidon Temple is located written by the survivors who returned from the temple after the sacrificial ceremony. β
The information mentioned by Sean Leo knows that some of the people who enter the Poseidon Temple during the sacrificial ceremony will return to the world of Veron, and these people will lose their memories of the Poseidon Temple for incomprehensible reasons, but they will also recover some memories for some inexplicable reasons later, and the content of these memories cannot be dictated by them, they can only write it down, and the things written down are all chaotic and disorderly, and cannot be interpreted, but because this is related to the Poseidon Temple, it will still be carefully preserved by the Poseidon Temple and sealed into archival materialsγ
"Of course I've read it, but it's all chaotic, not to mention that it can't be ......" Leo said and suddenly realized something, looked at Sean with some surprise, and said, "Could it be that the Poseidon Church of the Kingdom of England can decipher the content of those chaotic materials." β
Sean nodded and said, "Yes, those materials can be deciphered, and the intelligence information I have also comes from there, but it is not the Poseidon Church that can be deciphered, but the English royal family." β
Hearing this, Leo seemed to have understood, and said, "It's the Seagod Scepter." β
Sean admitted, "Yes, as long as the person with the Poseidon bloodline is holding the Poseidon Scepter, reading those chaotic materials will be able to see the hidden true content from them, and the purer the bloodline, the more content will be obtained." β
Hearing this, Leo thought for a moment and said, "Isn't there any side effect from this?"
Sean smiled bitterly and said with palpitations: "Of course, people who do this will fall into a state of madness for a period of time, and some will never even recover from this state. β
Speaking of this, Sean's face flashed with hatred, obviously a person he valued had met with an accident because of reading those chaotic materials, Leo didn't ask about this, just stood quietly by the side.
Sean quickly restrained the hatred in his heart and continued: "The Royal Family of England and the Poseidon Church finally compiled all the content after paying a lot of price, so compared to the Poseidon Church in Randall, the Poseidon Church and the royal family of the kingdom should have a better understanding of what the world is like in which the Poseidon Temple is located. β
"How much have you read about this?" asked Leo.
"Not a lot, but enough. Sean replied, then hesitated a moment before saying, "I'll tell you everything I know, so you can know more about the situation here, and help me find it." β
With that, Sean told Leo everything he knew about the Poseidon Temple.
Leo was also a little surprised that Sean was so decisive in handing over these precious materials for free, but it was very much in line with his heart, saving him the trouble of obtaining them by other means.
Although Sean talked about a lot, it can be summed up in only two points, one is the situation of the Poseidon Temple, and the other is the situation around the temple, such as the desperate mountain where they are now.
According to Sean's words, the water world in which the entire Poseidon Temple is located is very large, almost comparable to the Vilun Continent, and those Poseidon believers who have returned to the Vilen World from here only talk about the situation around the Dao Poseidon Temple, places like the Desperate Mountains are already the most marginal areas they know, in their words, this is the wasteland of the Velenid World, which is full of dangers, and every seemingly ordinary thing is a murderous hunter, and they all want to eat those who dare to enter hereγ
As for most of the Poseidon cultists who came to this world before, they were able to go back safely, because their range of activities was in the safe area around the Poseidon Temple, and they were all protected by the Poseidon Cultists, as long as they didn't look for death and asked for trouble, they would generally not encounter danger to their lives.
And there are only two safest places for these Poseidon cultists, one is the Mount Saint Tru next to the Poseidon Temple, and the other is also located next to the Poseidon Temple, which is called the Ocean of the Belan Inland Sea.
Interestingly, this world is not lifeless, on the contrary, there are a large number of extremely strange lives in this world, and the monster that died under Leo's crystal psionic gun just now is one of them, and there are many more such monsters in the Desperate Mountains and further outer.
Of course, the life of this world is not only these beast-based monsters, there are a large number of intelligent beings living in the St. Tru Mountain and the Belan Inland Sea next to the Poseidon Temple, and in these intelligent lives, human beings only occupy a small part, and the largest number of intelligent lives are the spirit race living in the St. Tru Mountain and the sea tribe living in the Belan Inland Sea.
Sean didn't have any details about the Elve, Sea and other non-human races, he just knew that the Elves and the Sea Clan both originated from the Belan Inland Sea, but later split for unknown reasons, the Elves left the sea to live in the mountains, and the Sea Clan stayed in the sea.
The only thing that is certain is that this unknown reason should not involve the god of the sea, because according to a legend recorded in the source, the god of the sea seems to still favor the spirits, and even did not hesitate to raise his dormant temple from the inland sea to the side of Mount Saint-Tru for the sake of the spirits.
After listening to what Sean said, Leo had a general understanding of the world, but he also had several ways to deal with the current situation in his mind, but there was one thing he still felt a little puzzled about, and asked, "Did you mention in those sources how they got back to Wei Lun?"
Sean replied truthfully: "No, they only remember that they went to the Poseidon Temple in the end, so the way to return to Veron should be at the Poseidon Temple." β
After hearing this, Leo then asked, "What kind of qualifications do you need to go to the Poseidon Temple?"
Sean recalled it carefully and said, "No, the information mentions that the Poseidon Temple does not have any guards, and any creature here can get close to the Poseidon Temple." β
Leo pondered for a moment, then asked with some curiosity, "Can you tell me what exactly you're trying to find here?"
Sean hesitated for a moment and said, "Sea monster snail." β
"Sea monster snails?" Leo was a little puzzled, not because he hadn't heard of such a thing, but because it was recorded in his database, but it was not a serious material, but some play written in folklore.
The content of the play is simple and old-fashioned, that is, an ordinary sailor at sea accidentally gets a conch that can summon a sea monster, and then he becomes the most powerful captain of the sea with this sea monster, and finally wins the favor of the princess of the kingdom and holds the beauty.
Thinking of this, Leo seemed to sense something, looked at Sean and said, "The sailor in the story ......"
"It's my ancestors, the founders of the Donald family. Sean nodded and admitted.
